How are you?
How are you? It seems to be the question every time I talk to someone lately. So much going on in the world. I have been home Sheltered In Place with my mom, daughter and sister. I am finding ways to stay busy. It's been a challenge to stay motivated when there is so much sad news. It's times like this where you dig deep, go inside and find hope in all the good that is happening. Staying in gratitude for all the blessings that come my way everyday.
I've also been working in the garden, planting seeds as well as returning to my art practice. I used to be prolific painter in years past. The last 4 years have been consumed by the gallery and cafe that we closed in March just a few days before the Shelter in Place order. I am continuing to curate art as I did before and taking it online just like old times. I think it will be while before galleries open again and because both my mom and I are high risk I won't be visiting them anytime soon.
These past few months at home have given me time to reflect on what my heart wants to do.
I want to help people heal through art, taping into their heart centers to live a life where love and compassion rule not allowing fear, anger or hate to take over. Life is too short to live that way.
Stay tuned as I pivot and work on how I'm going to do that. For now let's just say I am a full-time artist and online curator. :) that makes me happy just typing that.
For the past few weeks I've been letting go of older art pieces on Ebay and also creating new small pieces. I am listing them on EBay mostly and also adding art to sites: RedBubble and Patreon.
I always say I'm going to blog more and I hope to really I do. It's so easy to just do a Facebook post but honestly I'm not liking it much anymore. So you may just see me hanging out here more often. I'm also posting new work on my Instagram page.
Love you all and remember. You are so Loved. Stay safe my friends.
